Florida tax delinquency notices need a quick response
A Florida Revenue notice should be matched to the account, tax, and period quickly because penalties, interest, and collection costs can keep building.
A Florida tax notice is not the kind of mail to toss in the “later” pile.
Florida Revenue can start collection after a missed return or payment. It can also act after a late filing, short payment, or audit. A Notice of Delinquency usually means Revenue does not have a required return. A Notice of Amount Due means the return was late or more money may be owed.
First, match the notice to the account, tax, and filing period. A closed or moved business can still have an open tax account. The same is true after an owner change. An open account may expect a return even when sales were zero.
Revenue adds a 10% collection fee when the debt stays unpaid for 90 days. For that reason, check the account early even when you plan to dispute the amount.
Use the contact route printed on the notice or Revenue’s collection page. Save the notice, envelope, return, payment proof, reply, and call notes together. Then each person in the case can start with the same facts.
